I think Vince wants to change the business model to something more akin to the 80s, were the biggest draws are guys who only have 1-3 matches a year max, in other words Taker and the Rock. That way you don't have to fear your main draw for Mania suddenly getting injurded prior to the event. Cena supposedly had a luckily non-dangerous car crash 2 weeks ago, that might've freaked Vince out. Rock has already confirmed he'll be back for next Mania, so that supports my theory. The other PPVs will be there just to stay afloat from Mania to Mania, sell merchandise and build-up contenders for the main draws. That's my prediction anyway.

Whelp, seems I was wrong, Lesnar versus Cena at Extreme Rules, a big match at a traditionally small PPV. They might have Cena do an injury angle afterwards for him to act in Marine 3 or some crap.

Yesterday's Raw sucked badly, except for the starting brawl. I guess I'll stop watching again, until I hear something interesting had happened, my enthusiasm from last week is gone.

WWE is the king of killing momentum. Every single feud looks like crap, most of the midcarders are now lost in the shuffle, the low card guys are about to get their walking papers and a bunch of development talent is about to come in.

E3 was pretty fucking disappointing this year. Excited for Pikmin 3, Rayman Legends, Zombi U, Watch_Dogs, Luigi's Mansion 2 and the New Super Mario Bros games, and as expected Assassin's Creed 3 looks amazing. Really comes to something though when Microsoft show 2 exclusives, both of which are continuations of trilogies that were supposed to be finished, and the only other things they have to show are "games that get DLC first!", "Kinect sports games!" and "Compatibility with phones!"... Where are the fucking GAMES? Sony barely showed anything as well, though Last of Us will probably be good. And Nintendo's big new IP... is a Carnival Games style minigame. Ah dear...

Oh, and no information on new Smash Bros or Mario Kart makes Vid go something something...
